In launching his newest book, Amazon bestselling author Stephen Hawley Martin notes that at least one contestant for the Democrat nomination for president wants to tax Christian institutions that do not agree with him. Martin asserts that if a Progressive wins the White House in 2020 and Democrats keep the House and take the Senate, an all-out war on Christianity could break out. He cites a speech given recently at Notre Dame by Attorney General William Barr, who blasted “militant secularists” and their attacks on Judeo-Christian values. Barr is quoted as having said, “This is organized destruction. Secular forces and their allies have marshaled all the forces of mass communication, popular culture, the entertainment industry, and academia, in an unremitting assault on religion and traditional values.”
